In every episode of The Tim Ferriss Experiment, Ferriss partners with the world’s best and most unorthodox teachers (Laird Hamilton, Marcelo Garcia, Stewart Copeland, etc.), who train him for a final gauntlet. Shocking breakthroughs, injuries, epiphanies, and disasters ensue. In cases where he succeeds, Tim shows you how to replicate his results. The mantra of the show is “you don’t need to be superhuman to get superhuman results…you just need a better toolkit.”

Enjoy!

I was wondering: I understand that the Tim Ferriss Experiment is only available in USA for legal reasons, but why even the extra videos on http://www.fourhourworkweek.com/tv are restricted? Are they under the same legal contract as the show itself is?

I was sooo into lockpicking a while back (a la SplinterCell). I only got so far as small padlocks but the feeling after the first unlock is just amazing!! A paperclip and a stainless steel pen cap was all that it took for me. I never got passed doors though – and that was where my short-lived hobby ended.

Hi, Tim. Rollins! You have to get Henry Rollins on the podcast. Discuss his article titled The Iron, which was originally published in Details magazine. Love your work, love the tv show & keep up the Great Work.

Hi, could it be possible to separate TFE and rest of the blog into separate mailing lists? This way it can only p**s that 96% of the world, who happened to NOT being born in USA – while the rest of mails still can be interesting…

I don’t have an iTune account and am trying to keep my laptop software efficient too. This makes me reluctant to install iTunes to watch these TV shows, is there any other option to get access to them?

Being a fan of your books, as I think many of the watchers of the show would be, I was wanting more technical meat to the show. As in how you broke down the concepts. What worked, what didn’t. Basically how we could apply the same ourselves.

The program seems like it’s just watching some guy learn some things but there’s a huge disconnect in my interest level for that.

I’d be interested to know how you feel they turned out Tim. I have no idea how much pressure producers put on the content, I’m guessing more than your own books.

Hey Tim, I live in Australia and would love to watch your TV Show. All the best in getting international rights. I’m guessing it’s a legal thing and you can’t use something like Vimeo on Demand for international audience..? Similar to the way TINY the movie does: https://vimeo.com/ondemand/tinyinternational

I think Tim would like this video about learning and the brain. It really applies to a lot of the ideas he works with in terms of gaining understanding and mastery of subjects. It’s about how hard it is to learn how to ride a bike with opposite controls, how the brain shifts, and has to take time and practice to re-learn what was previously understood. One of the things I wonder about with all of Tims “powerlearning” is how much learning something new may take away from mastery of previous subjects. Not only is it good to learn new things quickly if needed, but it’s good to realize how learning new things affects the things we already thought we knew…this video sheds light on this topic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MFzDaBzBlL0&app=desktop

If you think about it, when Bruce Wayne was studying to become the Batman, he traveled the world and learned with the world-class masters on a range of topics. That’s exactly what you do! Batman is probably a big fan of 80/20 rule as well.

I’m alive today because of Batman. I was once kidnapped and left to die, but I managed to escape because I had read about escaping from ropes in a Batman’s comic book. After this video, I think I can extend my repertoire to include locks, and when the show is available in Brazil, maybe I’ll be able to include zip ties and handcuffs 🙂

Hi Tim sorry about this someone tried to call you with a recorded voice. Unfortunately it was my voice. I need to stop this guy but his is connected to the masons Netherlands. Sorry for the inconvience! I will solve it.All the best,
